Yup, no more low carb for me. It's lots of fruit and sweet potato for now, but I can't wait until the day I can eat cupcakes again!! Thanks for the suggestions, dilettantesteph. I tried brazil nuts in the shell from nuts.com but I got really really sleepy (like taking a sedative) after eating two of them. I've learned that if I get abnormally sleepy after...

Thanks guys. I'm not too stressed about the layoff. I got some severance, so it's a perfect chance to relax for a little bit longer and experiment with my food intolerances. Gemini, I'm not sure if I can copy-paste links in here, but if you google search "low carb t3" or "gaps diet low carb t3," you'll see a few different results. I think there's some...

Hey guys! Four months later and I'm finally better. I wanted to come back and give an update to all that helped me, in hopes of helping others out that might be having similar problems. There were a few things going on. I think the biggest factor was that I'd been too low carb for way too long. I have so many food intolerances in addition to celiac that...

Yes! I've been experiencing the exact same things. I had noticed crashes after taking a B complex over the past few months (which was probably due to other stressors such as gluten cross contamination, adrenal fatigue, etc). I stopped taking them for awhile then took a B-complex for the first time in a while on Friday. Later that day I started to feel really...

Thanks guys! DGP results came back at 18 (<20 is negative). In June 2012, DGP antibodies were 20, February 2013 they were 26, and June 2013 they were 17. So even though these numbers are hovering around the "negative" mark, I don't think they are low enough for me not to have symptoms, especially Hashimoto's symptoms. I'm on day two of close to zero supplements...

My lab states that DGP less than 20 is considered negative, and mine was 17 in June, but isn't this the number that should be as close to zero as possible? I should get the results for my most recent test tomorrow morning, and that should help narrow down what's going on. For the other super sensitive people, how low should I expect this number to be???...

Thanks so much to everyone for the suggestions. To be honest, in the 3 years that I've been gluten free, I can't say that I've ever felt consistently good for more than a week or two at time. The problem is that I don't have overt stomach symptoms right after consuming anything with gluten. My symptoms are mostly mood issues and brain fog/fatigue, and...

Hello! I was diagnosed with Celiac in October 2010. I started out with a TTG IGA value of 33 and managed to get it down to 4 in June of 2012. I retested in February of this year and was surprised that my TTG had doubled to 8. My deamidated gliadin antibodies had also increased from 20 to 26. Starting around that time, I started feeling really sick with...

A few months back, I read about a potential source of CC that I'd never even thought of: pharmacists don't clean the trays between refills unless you specifically ask them to. So for the past few months, I've been asking them to clean the trays before filling my prescriptions to prevent CC. It turns out this might not be enough.... I'm currently taking...
